Definitions
- the invention relates to a method to transmit a coded information to a user via a graphical display, comprising the step of obtaining said coded information by a scanner to be positioned near the graphical display, and a device therefore.
- Such a method is known from WO 2005/039171 disclosing a method of verifying the authenticity of an image represented on a display.
- a scanner is used. The scanner scans parts of the image and a unique code will be generated. This unique code will be compared, if the result is positive, the authenticity of the image is verified.
- a first drawback of a method according to this document is, that the image is static and the scanner device has to be moved over the screen. It is a further drawback of this invention, that the system is limited to a certain resolution of the screen. As soon as it is used with an other screen with an other resolution or the screen resolution is changed by the user, it may not be possible to use the system.
- Said known method is only reliable, identifying a static bar-code like image line.
- WO 02/01793 discloses a 2-field transmission system for electronic signatures. The reduction to two fields with one synchronisation field solves the problem of the screen resolution, but it causes unacceptable transmission times to a computer system.
- US 5432851 discloses further system for secure optical transmission. As in some prior art as mentioned before it is not possible to apply the system in two different screen resolutions. Furthermore this system uses only one transmission field and works only with a CRT type screen display. The same restriction holds for the invention disclosed in US 5978656 .
- EP 1255178 discloses a further system for a use of optical interfaces for the authentication of persons.
- EP1480107A2 protocols are presented that allow secure challenge-response authentication with the availability of only a one-way fully encrypted and thus protected communication channel.
- WO 2005/020036 discloses a system, where the user identifies himself to a computer system by means of portable access device. However to successfully use this device, biometric data has to be scanned.
- optical interfaces know from prior art, such as US 4,609,777 or WO 87/03977 . It is a disadvantage that the said system is not applicable for the different screen resolutions as well as for codes that are much longer than 4 bits as the invention relies on a defined space-time pattern. This kind of control access to local computer hardware is not possible in highly distributed communication systems like the Internet.
- Authentication means for computer users are well know by prior art and it is possible to chose from a plethora of means for such a purpose. It is in the interest of network users, especially internet users, and network operators, such as banks, insurance companies etc. that the authentication procedure to gain access to the computer system is reliable and secure and that no unauthorized person gains access to the network. In addition most organizations wish that the roll-out and the management of such access systems should be possible without any local hardware or software installations at the access terminal.
- Known authentication systems give access to the user if they are able to provide a user name, password and third authentication means.
- the third authentication means usually provides a code by algorithmic means that is unique.
- the disclosed method allows transmitting strongly encrypted codes with key length up to 1024 or 2048 bits in ergonomically acceptable time slots of a few seconds over any kind of graphical computer displays.
- a method to transmit a coded information to a user via a graphical display Said coded information is obtained by a scanner to be positioned near the graphical display.
- the coded information is transmitted through a number of code points. Said code points are arranged in the direction of the fast refresh rate of the display.
- a system for securely transmitting coded information to a user via a graphical display comprises a display device for representing the coded information and a scanning device for scanning the coded information and a computer for processing the coded information.
- the invention in question addresses the problem of scaling and image refreshment.
- the change of width of the optical field to be scanned wherein the optical points to be scanned always have the same relative width in relation to its neighbours, ensures that at least at one point in height the geometry of the sensor array matches the length of the optical field.
- the arrangements of the sensors on the scanning device guarantee that the device reads always the complete image pattern even when patterns change nearly at the refreshment frequency of the display. No synchronization between the display refreshment and the pattern flickering frequency is necessary.
- 4 to 30 sensors can be used within a practical length of 10 centimetres of such a device, preferably around maximum 10 sensors.
- the synchronisation signal for the scanning device is included within the coding.
- the arrangement of the optical fields i.e. pixels, is provided in a row being oriented parallel to the direction within which the screen is refreshed in a fast way in comparison to the slow refreshment time of subsequent lines.
- the device itself is designed in an ergonomic way.
- the geometry of the device is ergonomic since it can be held in an easy way against the screen ensuring a good reading of the optical information displayed on said screen.
- the device comprises an internal display to inform the user about the status and the next step to perform.
- Horizontal lines are provided in the optical field help with the horizontal (angular) positioning of the device.
- the screen output comprises adjusting buttons to scale the optical field directly in discrete or quasi continuous steps.
- All features strive to improve a method to transmit a coded information to a user via a graphical display in a way that this connection can be regarded as a relative high-bandwidth optical interface, especially to transmit coded messages.
- Such a channel can be used
- the method ensures that said flickering fields are provided in a way to ensure that a number of at least three geometrical fields (at least within one pixel row) are controlled which are covered and therefore detected by a corresponding number of sensor elements, and this independently from the resolution of the screen.
- One possible embodiment shows a trapezoid form for every field. This proposal allows a greater number of sensor elements and thus a faster code transmission.
- Fig. 1 shows a schematic representation of a system for user authentication according to the invention, comprising a display 10 and an authentication module 20.
- the display 10 is usually connected as a computer monitor to a computer system 30 but it could also be integrated in service automation device or in a hand-held device.
- the control unit generating the image on the display 10 can be said computer system 30 or said computer system 30 receives control information for generating said display from a remote station.
- the arrow 60 indicates the one-way transmission channel to transmit a relative long plain or cypher text message, e.g. 1 to 2 kbit, directly into the device 20.
- the computer monitor 10 may be a cathode ray tube (CRT) monitor or a liquid crystal display (TFT, LCD) or any other type (Plasma, PLED etc.).
- Such computer monitors 10 have a display surface 40, e.g. a glass screen. A part of the screen display surface 40 for user authentication is shown in Fig. 2.
- Such a monitor 10 has different refresh rates in horizontal as well as in vertical direction for building up the image on the screen.
- the vertical direction which has a refresh rate between 50 and 100 Hz, is indicated by arrow 11 and also designated as slow refresh direction.
- the horizontal direction which has a refresh rate between 30-96 kHz, is indicated by arrow 12 and also designated as fast refresh direction.
- the computer monitor 10 displays a number of code points, code fields or code strips 51, 52, 53, 54 on at least one horizontal virtual guide line 50.
- a virtual guide line is at least one line of pixel 51, 52, 53, 54 represented by one vertical step in Fig. 2. Such steps are unavoidable in view of the technology of current screen displays.
- Each point 51, 52, 53, 54 usually comprises a number of pixels, e.g. two to a few tenth of pixels, in the horizontal direction, on at least one row (said row 50) in the vertical direction.
- the embodiment shows four code points 51 to 54 and the corresponding scanner 20 as shown in Fig. 1 has four sensitive elements 21 to 24.
- the user who wants to gain access to a computer network has to be equipped with usual identification means, such as a user name and/or a contract number and/or a password, and a scanner 20, which has to be used in connection with the computer display 10 in order to scan the graphical code.
- identification means such as a user name and/or a contract number and/or a password
- scanner 20 which has to be used in connection with the computer display 10 in order to scan the graphical code.
- Said code is then decoded to receive the information from the host computer.
- Said information may comprise a single password phrase to be entered to the computer console related to monitor 10, but can also comprise an information payload to be distributed in a different manner, i.e. through RFID transmittal, sonic transmission etc.
- the computer network to be accessed may be a website of a bank, where the user gains access to its account details, an online shop, where the user has an account for orders etc., an intranet within a company, a door where authentication is required, etc..
- the code points 51 to 54 are emitting a fast changing coded signal which is catched by the detector elements 21, 22, 23, 24, arranged at one edge of the scanning device 20.
- the code points 51 to 54 are separated one from another as are the detector elements 21 to 24.
- the code - for every point pair 21/51 to 24/54 - can be a greyscale code, a colour code a simple black-and-white detection.
- the wording flickering code is used within this description to describe the view which is experienced by a user.
- the advantage to read the code along one horizontal line 50 i.e.
- the alignment of the scanning device with the fast refreshment direction avoids the problem of the synchronization of the generation of the flickering code with the refreshment cycle of the display and thus the flickering code may be generated within an encapsulated programming environment that has no access to control parameters of the local operating system. This allows to transfer relative long plain or cipher text in a minimal time window to any peripheral terminal device using so called Web technologies or any other transmission technology.
- the screen display 40 shows two tapered guiding lines 41 and 42, mostly oriented in the slow direction 11. These lines 41 and 42 can constitute the external boundaries for applying the scanner 20, i.e. the external edges 28 of the scanner 20, or some mark on the frontside or backside of the scanner 20.
- the one line 50 with its number of code points 51 to 54 will usually not match the sensor elements 21 to 24.
- a number of additional horizontal code points e.g. points 121.
- the invention is based on the insight that additional horizontal lines as 150 or 250 provide for a different, smaller distance between the code points 251 to 254.
- Code points with a similar reference numeral 51, 151, 251 are controlled with the same code and display with at most a small delay the same information. It is also possible to create a code point line over corresponding code points 51 over 151 to 251. This creates a code line essentially "similar" in the mathematical sense to the guiding line 41.
- the tapered line 41 is in fact a step-wise arranged line due to the digital nature of the display. It is also contemplated that the guiding lines 41, 42 comprise steps visible to the user or comprise a curved taper. It is also possible that the tapered line 41 is opening to the upper end and have the smaller distances between the points 51 to 54 in the lower region of the display 40.
- Lines 41 and 42 are a valuable guiding aid for the user.
- the user has to place the scanner 20 in a manner that the scanner 20 is in horizontal direction (along direction 12) and that the edges 28 of the scanner 20 are congruent with the line arrangement 41 and 42.
- the sensor elements 21 to 24 of the scanner 20 are then positioned in a correct manner over the code points 51 to 54.
- the scanner 20 then scans the graphical code over some time and displays e.g. an authentication code to be submitted or signals the correct reception of a coded information.
- an authentication the dataset, which now comprises the usual identification data and the authentication code, will be processed. The user will be authenticated if the datasets are verified.
- FIG. 1 A position of the scanner 20 to read the graphical code is shown in Fig. 1 as a rectangle 19, covering several neighbouring lines.
- the rectangle 19 can comprise a part surface of surface 86 comprising all sensor elements and intervening space 29.
- the graphical code is an arrangement of code points 51 to 54 in dots.
- the dots provide at least a binary code and may be arranged in different shapes.
- the code points are arranged in one single line 50, which lies in the fast refresh direction.
- the line 50 comprise at least three code points.
- a larger number of discrete lines, comprising at least three lines 50, 150, 250 marked with reference numerals, are arranged parallel one to another. This allows the user to always position the scanning device at the line with the right scaling to match the sensors with exactly the right flickering point.
- the graphical code may be realised through a fast displaying of changing images (GIF, JPEG, animated GIF etc.) or displaying the code via an image generating program, such as a Java applet. Furthermore it is possible to generate image by a local program, which displays the image data on the screen (Flash, JavaScript).
- the code may be modulated by black/white images, greyscales or colours.
- the sequence of images which provides the flickering, contains a redundant information in order to identify or reconstruct lost or poorly transmitted images.
- An error correction code may be used. Additionally a coding is used to distinguish the subsequent transmittal of two identical codes.
- the internal synchronization between the flickering code on the display and the reading scanning device is built in the coded signal. There is no need to use one of the signal points just for synchronization information. This allows to use the maximal bandwidth of the flickering channel for useful information.
- Fig. 3 shows the scanner 20, also designated as token, having eight optical sensors 21, 22, 23, 24, 24', 23', 22' and 21' that are arranged preferably in a line. It is also possible to arrange several lines, a second line with such sensors 121 is shown in a shadowed representation. The arrangement of the optical sensors may also be designated as array or sensor array.
- the scanner 20 has to be able to scan the graphical code, therefore the distance between the code points of the graphical code and the distance between the sensors has preferably to be equal. The distance between two adjacent code points can be different, one pair from another, this makes the code representation asymmetric.
- the distance between the code points has to be chosen accordingly.
- the distance between the code points depend on the resolution of the monitor, therefore the distance between the code points vary according to the resolution of the monitor.
- several graphical codes are arranged, in order to provide several set of code points with different distances between the code points.
- the optical sensors may be chosen from the group of photosensors, phototransistors or micro-cameras. However it is possible to use any other suitable sensor means. Furthermore it is possible to realise the photosensor with a photo transistor with a low pass filter for reduction of high-frequency noise (e.g. noise generated by artificial light bulbs).
- the scanner may have its optical sensors behind a cylindrical aperture, which limits the amount of light to a small cone. This allows to place the sensor in a dense way since crosstalk would be prevented.
- the apertures may not only be built as described but also as an array of small holes in the housing of the sensor array.
- the optical system is arranged in the edge 128 of a card 20, which has similar dimensions as a credit card.
- This card 20 is also designated as a smart card.
- the edge 128 comprising the sensor elements may be inclined to the front and back surface of the card 20 for easier manipulation. However, it is also possible to provide the sensor elements in the upper very narrow edge 28 of the card 20.
- a light emitting diode which shows the status, e.g. correct/incorrect, of the data transmission, preferably a screen 140 as shown in Fig. 2.
- Fig. 4 shows a cross-section of the scanner device 20 of figure 3.
- the optical sensor 302 is thereby arranged on a printed circuit board 300. Its optical sensitivity is orthogonal to the printed circuit board 300, as indicated by arrow 320.
- Various electronic devices 301 such as integrated circuit chips and the like for controlling the scanner device 20 are solely arranged on an upper surface 306 of the printed circuit board 300 as the optical sensor 302.
- the light signal is the signal that represents the coded information and is emitted by the computer screen 40 as described.
- the optical deflection element 303 is preferably made out of an optical material that has preferably a high refractive index, e.g. an index over 1.3 and preferably of about 1.4, i.e. the element 303 is mainly full material and fits on the printed circuit board 300.
- the edges 310, 311, 312 of the optical deflection element are arranged (in relation to the above-mentioned refractive index) in specific angles in order to provide an optical arrangement with total reflection for all entering light with a direction according or similar to arrow 321.
- the path of the light signal is illustrated by a dashed line 305.
- the optical deflection element 303 may also be made out of a metallic foil having the exterior outline as the edges 310, 311 and 312 of the deflection element 303 and being affixed to the body of the scanner device 20. It is advantageous that the usual smart-card like form of the device 20 comprises an inclined front window or opening 330 to allow the light to enter the device and/or the optical deflection element 303.
- the front opening 330 max form an angle of 45 degree in relation to the bottom 332 of the smart-card 20 as well as an angle of 45 degree in relation to the upper edge 333.
- the optical deflection element 303 allows to affix all electronic circuits on one side (side 306) of the printed circuit 300, without losing the flexibility of the smart-card 20, i.e. the display, as e.g. the element 301, to be read through the top 334 of the smart-card 20, and nevertheless to have a good read-ing/scanning ability in the direction of the window 330, nearly opposite to the front side of the printed circuit, i.e. in an angle of between 120 and 150 degree seen from the direction 320 of the optical scanner 302, preferably around 135 degree.
- the deflection element (303) is made of an reflective sheet element, said e.g. metallic foil is arranged - in the cross-section view - along a polygon or curve to reflect an incoming optical signal 321 towards said sensor 302 having its sensitivity orthogonal to the printed circuit board 300.
- the screen display two guide lines, a left line 41 and a right line 42, which are straight lines.
- the left line 41 and the right line 42 comprise the same length and mirror themselves on a middle line 43, which is in vertical direction.
- the left line and the right line are arranged angular to the horizontal direction.
- the angle ⁇ may be between 45° and 135°. Therefore the left line 41 and the right line 42 are tapered to each other.
- the graphical code is centered between the left line 41 and the right line 43.
- several graphical codes are displayed on different lines 50, 150, 250. The smaller the horizontal distance between the left line 41 and the right line 42, the smaller is the distance between the code points 51 to 52 or 151 to 152 or 251 to 252.
- the right line and the left line are substituted with a curve.
- the curve may be semicircular, a segment of a circle or comprise various segments of a circle with various diameters. Both ends of the curve may be on a virtual line, which is in horizontal direction and not shown on the screen.
- the graphical code is arranged in the same manner as in the first embodiment.
- the right line and the left line comprise horizontal and vertical portions alternately. Therefore both curves have a stair-like shape.
- the main direction is similar to the straight lines as described above. This is indicated by a virtual line (not shown by the screen).
- the graphical code is arranged in the same manner as in the first embodiment. The steps of such a representation comprise directly visible horizontal guide lines as small sections of lines 81 in Fig. 2.
- Some of the current computer monitors are pivotable.
- the displayed image of the computer program also rotates.
- the refresh rates of the former horizontal and vertical direction remain due to the design of the computer monitor. Therefore the graphical code and the guiding lines remain in the same angular position as described above.
- the code point arrangement is still located in the fast refresh direction. The scanner has to be held accordingly.
- the display 40 also comprises horizontal guide lines 81; two of them are shown in Fig. 2.
- Fig. 2 furthermore shows two representations of the device 20.
- Device 20' is shown to be held by a user, indicated through its hand.
- the user 88 sees the flickering representation between the guide lines 41, 42, 81 on the screen 40 and moves the card 20, according to arrow 89, near or onto the screen 40. He has to hold the device - more or less - horizontally, guided by the horizontal guidelines 81.
- the representation comprises adjustment buttons 72 and 71 to increase or decrease the dimensions (in pixel) of the flickering representation. It is also possible to make this process of increase or decrease a quasi-continuous one, which was to be stopped after triggering the process by using buttons 71 and 72 through pushing a stop button 73.
